Pastors In Gum Test.

Canton, O.—To find who could chew his gum the longest and stretch it the the most, ministers, deacons and elders entered into an original oontest at the picnic of the German and United Evangelical churches. Disappointment was caused by the quality of the gum, which refused to be stretched more than a foot or two. The prize was awarded to John Btiters, an elder. Rev. William Davis of the Trinity United Evangelical church, was beaten by a mere fraction of an inch.
